I am really hoping to have surgery in November. I had a followup this Friday. So far I have lost 16.4 pounds of the 50 pounds the doctor wants me to lose. I have been on the pre-op diet for 11 days now. I was last weighed on day 6. I hope to get these last pounds off fast. I don't know how much more of the liquid diet I can take.

Hello and welcome! Everyone's Pre-Op diet seems to be different. I know that when I had my last appt with the surgeon is when he told me what i would be having on my 2 week diet. Gave me options of different Protein Drinks that I will have to drink for those 2 weeks. Good luck!

Hello soonerorlater, and thanks for the information. I will find out everything on the 28 of Oct. Was Unjury Protein drinks one of your options?
